Miscellany Monday

Mondayyyy, you have arrived oh so quickly!!
I'm enjoying a nice cup of coffee and enjoying my morning at home. 
(I don't have to be at work until 11:30)

As I'm typing this, I'm listening to Pandora on my handy dandy  iphone.
Wedding Dress by Matt Nathanson is playing right now and it seriously just makes me happy.
I loveeee him!
 
We all know what time it is...link up time!  :)
Write random and link up with Carissa from Lowercase Letters.

{ONE}
I had a fun-filled weekend full of good ole' family time!
I truly love spending time with my lovies...especially my nieces and nephews.
THEY ARE THE BEST.

Friday night, Kim and I babysat Halle, Carter, and Cooper so my brother and his wife could go see The Hunger Games.  We rented Happy Feet 2 (so cute) and cuddled up on the couches.
OK so maybe we had a little bit of fun too!

 Saturday, we ALL went over to my sister and brother-in-law's semi-new house to do some work...
The manly men built this deck, complete with a baby gate. :)
The women put the girls' letters and curtains up in their rooms.
We also did lots of chatting and sitting around on the deck watching the men work.
We were reallly really good at that.

{TWO}
I also did LOTS of shopping this weekend...
UH OH!
I have to admit, most of my stuff came from consignment and TJ MAX so I did bargain shop...that's ok right?
Unfortunately, all of my consignment stuff is being washed, but here is everything else.
I'm loving my new spring clothes. 
I think I did pretty good.  I'm actually wearing my new linen pants today. :)

I also bought some fabulous new nail polish.

 {THREE}
I did some major crafting this weekend.
Here is a preview...you will have to wait to see just what I made...

{FOUR}
My new blog design is now installed...yah! I love it.
Also, if you have my old blog button, it will no longer work so PLEASE, pretty please with a cherry on top add my new one. 
K, thanks!

OK peeps, it's time for Smell the Roses with Jess from Lovely Little Things.
Check out what Smell The Roses is all about here.

Last week's task was to write down 3 inspirational quotes and post them in places where you'll see them throughout the week.
I know this quote seems a little shallow, but I didn't want to beat around the bush with myself.
In all honestly I want to be fit not SKINNY, but feeling skinny to me isn't really about a number, it's about how I feel soooo there....it's explained. :)
I only did 1 quote this week.

Happy Monday lovies.

XoXo
